The Housing Crisis in the European Union

The European Parliament has established a special committee to address the housing crisis across the European Union.

This committee will examine the challenges faced by citizens, including young people and those with lower incomes, who are struggling with high housing prices and a lack of affordable homes.

The committee will map housing needs, analyze existing policies, investigate housing speculation, and assess the impact of short-term rentals on affordability.

It will also explore innovative solutions, potential barriers to construction, and the effectiveness of public and private resources, aiming to propose concrete recommendations for decent, sustainable, and affordable housing.
